I haven't read the book, but I can say that description matches most barefoot children in the South in the summer. And many adults too.
Froide,
Can I take a guess that you have never gone barefoot?
Yes, the description was rather southern, but it had nothing to do with race. It has to do with it is too hot to wear shoes in the summer, unless you like wet, sweaty, stinky, itchy, athletes feet.
Please come to anywhere in the south in August. Preferably the Gulf Coast. You will see why our kids go barefoot.
